- Windows Games on Linux | WINE Versions
Applications, Gaming, and all the different ways Linux deals with Windows Programs. Almost every Windows program uses WINE albeit in through a different program like Steam Proton, CrossOver, PlayOnLinux, and Lutris. So, lets go over how to use it and all the different versions of it out there
winehq-staging: this is the most recent testing wine version.
winehq-stable: this is the current stable wine version (probably the one you should install)
winehq-devel: this package is used to provide development headers, mostly used by third party software compilation.
Links to 3rd Party WINE builds:

Yeah, if they read it Windows wouldn't have a userbase!
@@douglasward718 is bk software?
You're doing a great thing for the community. Thanks Chris!
World would be a better place if all apps and games developers were building and testing their products on Wine instead of Windows. That could maximize the potential market. Let's get started.
After a few months of dual booting and stuff watching your videos like to say I am fully linux now
Thank you, Chris.
You could mention Gallium Nine which improves performance of dx9 games on Linux with mesa drivers. It's mainly for legacy GPU without vulkan support, but still.
Great video! One thing I'd like to learn more is this "Proton wine builds (-tkg, -GE, official or others) are not suited for use outside of Steam, even if the option is provided by some third party tools. Doing so can break the whole way they are designed to work and thus is NOT recommended." I've used proton in Lutris and it seems to be working fine but according to TKG I shouldn't. Maybe make a video explaining why we shouldn't use Proton in Lutris?
I use Play on Linux, because I can never get Lutris to work right and Cross Over grabs all the resources to itself, and failed to get the program at the time running. Play on Linux has worked for everything so far, but you have given me two more to look at, thanks.
Wow, I remember the last video on this and a lot really has changed since then. I don't remember seeing development progress this rapidly before. Maybe the day when we can liberate all the gamers from the shackles of Windows will be here sooner than later!
Will never happen in the short, or medium term. Even Apple with significantly more market share than linux desktop is missing many games. Until Linux's market share significantly increases, you will be stuck with having to do work arounds with Wine or lutris or proton or whatever; and then there will always be efforts from some manufacturers to incorporate DRM that can't be easily bypassed with WINE or other similar programs. What I want from linux is not WINE; I want native support. That's the holy grail.
Hi Chris, thanks as always for making these very informative videos and a Windows user who has made the transition to Linux (I use Zorin 15 Core as my daily driver) you really encourage me to continuing to learn more about Linux and I spread the greatness of Linux to my friends and family. A member of my family is actually sick of Windows 10 and wants to change but won't until Facebook Games Room can run on it. I have followed a tutorial on the internet to do this however it doesn't work. Is there anyway you or anyone in the comments section can assist me? I would greatly appreciate it. Keep going, thanks for your channel, your content is marvellous!
So Chris, THANK YOU for your content. I WAS a Mint guy, just a new Linux user- your videos have shown me the vastness that is Linux... I recently switched to KDE Neon and... WOW. I HOPE that my newfound love of the customization doesn’t take me down the Arch road, or other distros that you can customize TOTALLY, but need a ton more knowledge.
My question today: can YOU pls do video(s) on KDE Neon? For the intermediate user, like a lot of your followers, offers MUCH. it’s not a newbie stock flavor... and you can customize in SOME ways of the barebones distros that hardcore users like. Please cover neon. Or, plasma/KDE in general. I vote KDE Neon tho. Can that be put into the mix?
Hi Chris! I'm completely new to Linux, been using Windows my whole life. I want to ask whether I will be able to play EA Sports NHL 99 on Linux and with the help of Wine or Proton? I've read a few articles that retro Windows games from the 90's actually run on distributions like Lite, Puppy or Ubuntu. Any advice is much appreciated!
I'm curious CTT, what hardware were you running in this video for the benchmark we saw?
downloading arch linux
Wow I never new they were other custom version of wine and proton I usually would just use the staging version if something didn't work and I absolutely love Lutris cause of how easy it is to use and how much stuff they have on there that isn't just for games for example I use Fusion 360 for 3D modeling since it's simple and easy to use but I could never get to work on Linux then I found out about Lutris and saw that they had a installer script for Fusion what to me months to try and get working but ultimately failing Lutris got up and running for me in a matter of minutes I just love how the Linux community is constantly getting better and more frequently now if only I can get Davinci resolve working on my laptop with Pop_OS and find a way to not get banned from games that use easy anti cheat it will be more difficult to keep my Windows partition and PC
I have seen some games packaged with WINE in a Flatpak... Expect that to be a thing more commonly in the near future.
hey I really liked the gorgeous distro you're running, which distro is it tho ?
Could you tell me how Wine is?
Can it run most games well without much headache?
And would it run fine in my Intel UHD 620?
I'm concerned about the performance difference being too great
If you're on arch based distro, you can install proton-ge-custom-bin from aur
For installing binary of glorious eggroll version of proton
It'll automatically appear in steam
You should also check out boxtron(available on aur) it's an awesome tool to run steam does games
It's much better than running them in proton
I'm about to move to Linux and I'm watching a ton of your videos about all the Linux OS', but I haven't spotted any SteamOS video from you. I know you always recommend PopOS and Mint, but why never SteamOS?
I did google a little the other day, and I think I found like 5 or more websites that list that OS as the best for gaming, but never actually found any reason why. Most that I've read was that everyone just chooses that one nowadays.
Do you have any opinion about SteamOS or none at all? Thank you in advance, and thank you in general for making such good videos.
Oh boi...
So huh, a fellow Taric player in league of legends hehe x)
Hey make a tutorial on how to install custom wineprefixes to a steam game, for example those that need wmp9 or 10 etc!
I've been wanting to know what Windows games will work with Wine, but the WineDB page is outdated with a number pf games not getting enough testers or any at all.
Talk about ERp Opebsoutce Softeare
Is there think best than odoo Erp implembtations
Just to say I lost a couple of mins trying to shift a mark on my screen that was (eventually) found to be a mark on your wall (or camera!) above the 100k subs plaque :)
The stock wine on Manjaro 19 KDE makes imvu work out of the box,that's all i need it for.
In recent video you were talking about Linux Adoption. Adoption will happen when a video like this isn't necessary.
noticed an elgato streamdeck behind you... did you get that running on Linux and if so will you make a guide?
Hope you have a great day & Safe Travels!
What's the music during benchmark? It's really nice.
Old skool I learned that back 2006!!!! But it's good to watch and learn for beginners!!!!
king
to lutris
why just make database for games and tools??
and just set that for each game
FYI, wine32 on Fedora continues to be a total PITA to install.
Hey Chis ! Could really use your linux gaming knowhow to get something going. Trying to get MK11 to run. Still borked under Proton, but I found this guide detailing how to get it going with Lutris software.kaminata.net/linux-wine-games/mortal-kombat-11-linux-dxvk-wine/
followed to a tee, just won't work for me. One thing I thought about was that the person in the video was using NVIDIA and I have an all AMD system (R5 3600/5700, Arch, latest mesa drivers)
Any help would be awesome, yeah I could boot into Windows in a few seconds, but where's the fun in that? lol
Hi Chris. Is it possible to install Windows Xp apps via Wine? I tried to install Age Of Empires and says it can only run on Xp. Is that any kind of compatibility mode?
@Terrifying AltAcc Thanks
Chris, how would I go about PM'ing you? There are some things I'd like to say but don't want to post a "wall of text" here.
Just email me at contact@christitus.com
American Truck Simulator runs so well.
Other than using a dedicated machine, is there a way to run/play DOS legacy games in Linux?
Specifically Linux Mint.
For DOS games I've been using regular DOSBox and DOSBox-X. Both work fine, but the second one is more comfortable to use with menus on the top like a typical emulator. The most 'advanced' games I was running were those classic FPS games like Doom, Hexen, Shadow Warrior etc. When it comes to emulation of retro stuff Linux has the best software that works without any problems.
can anyone help me i am having critical error in league.
which gtk theme are you using
I need the Wine for Dummies video. I just want to install C&C Generals but I can't figure it out.
I am still not able to play League on Solus.
I wish it worked just as well for regular apps. Only think I can't replace is Adobe Animate because we use it on school (we also use Visual Studio on school but that thing sucks so bad that I can't even imagine touching. Geany FTW). I've tried to run the installer but all it did was displaying a blank window.
@@douglasward718 I don't pay for anything.
Might be worth poiting out that League will update their anti-cheat system next year and that will break Wine compatibility
Has there been any recent talk in the Linux community over how to handle anti-cheat coding on gaming in Linux?
Edit: I really hate the auto correct feature of my phone (aka fixing typos).
A long shot question: does DayZ play well on Steam on Linux?
Not at all according to protondb.
It doesn't yet.
You can got ot ProtonDB, check any game you want and there will be reviews on what the community has seen/done
wine or playonlinux ??
aren't they the same thing? if not, which is better?
Plz can you do a full video.
👍
What protein allows Hogwarts legacy to run on Linux I keep getting messages that it needs direct x but Linux can’t install that
Wine reminds me of windows xp.
does anybody know how can i use coreldraw. that is the only thing that keeps me install windows alongside linux
Ew
If it doesn't work in WINE, all I know is just create a Windows VM and run it only when you need that program. If that's the only thing you use Windows for it makes more sense than dual booting, assuming you're able to pass through any specialized drawing hardware.
to all noob. In winecfg u should put some kind of libraries for software or game that you want to use.
If you don't know what kind of libraries for it, you can check in winehq website
Saying "noob" Is hurtful to me:'(
i like ur job, ur videos, etc, etc ... this one just made me a bit confused, I'm sorry .. am Linux user for many years, and one thing I've learnt is , do not install anything into Linux about Windows ... coz viruses, malware , etc... and that's not an issue which version of wine i do use ... simply, it is prohibited for me to allow some Win/Linux APP to have any access in my Linux installation! Maybe I am wrong ... anyway, I thank you :)
That ?used? to be the mantra for Wine, but I never hear anybody say that anymore these days (in UA-cam videos).
These days I'm assuming that the apps running in Wine are now sandboxed, or people prefer the ability to run games in Linux over the safety of their Linux installs.
so basically wine is an adapter?
Wine is an greate command translater

Chris Sir, I was trying to launch a game called Cricket 19 from my Zorin OS (based on Ubuntu 18.04) laptop in steam proton. But, I only got a message stating that:- No compatible graphics device found. Minimum DirectX 11 graphics device is required!. I tried lot of things, but nothing seems to work. Can you Please help me out.
Currently borked on proton dB with one report.
Bit of an obscure one maybe a roundabout way to play it would be to emulate the switch version
@@Destide Thanks for an answer. Yes, I know that it is not one of the popular games, so it will be tough to get support for it. I am from India, and here the craze for Cricket is unbelievable, This is one of the rare cricket games that is there for PC, and it is the best and most polished cricket game out there.
@@rvv6922 have you tried looking at similar errors for other games
@@Destide No, nothing as such. I was hoping that Chris Sir would have some method to sort it out.
@@rvv6922 I'd suggest going to the GitHub page and filling a bug report.

trying to get City of Heroes Homecoming to work in Linux but dotnet35 just won't install using Winetricks or PlayOnLinux. Lutris won't either
If you have snap available you can just download it from there.
Because that is a Linux native framework.

@@seansollars70 Hmm, thought dotnet35 was part of this.
Here you have what I meant snapcraft.io/search?q=Dotnet
This might also help you maybe github.com/Winetricks/winetricks/issues/703.

Please make a video on Internet Download Manager working using wine. I really miss Internet Download Manager after switching to Manjaro OS

I am really pissed Chris, I have had to go back to Windows because Linux can't handle multi monitor gaming. In Windows you can have each monitor separate and configure on its own and you can't do that in Linux.
Are you able to help with that so I can ditch it and go back to Manjaro or is it simply not possible?
BTW I have one center monitor 49" 3840x1080 and 2 side monitors 1920x1080 so 4K in other words.
@@motoryzen In flight sims no the one monitor is not enough, field of view is everything especially for a flight simmer.
It gives much better peripheral vision which is important for knowing where you are in 3d space.
There are also other options for doing that and I will likely employ them too but it makes it a whole lot better.
#ChrisTitusTech What Linux Distro are you running in this video? Sorry if you already explained it in the beginning but I have really bad short term memory. Also I'm still watching it right now and don't feel like rewinding it.

hey Can we install Office 365 on Linux? I have License of Office 365 and I also do some professional stuff on there. Thanks
WINEhq site has list of how well various windows software work, many times with tips/howto make it work
Theres also ProtonDB for win games & Steam/Proton

Can u install wine on your pine phone? And then install a PC windows game ?
So we can see if is working.
Pine Phone is ARM and most windows game are x86
@@happygimp0 How difficult is to rewrite or convert an x86 app/game for arm platform system ?
@@mariuscretu4060 Do you have source code? If so and it is well written, it can take just a recompile with different settings. But then is the question if there is not a way to compile it for Linux directly. If it is bad written, has a lot of assembly or is optimized a lot and needs that optimizations (like games) then it is hard. If you don't have the source code you can try emulate it but that is very slow.
I compiled Megaglest (Warcraft III - like open source strategy) on a Raspberry Pi 4, and it ran just fine, but the developers already prepared a pre-made bash script which installs all the dependencies for you.
@@user-xr3rb6pn9m I would (cross) compile it on a better machine, compiling on a RPI takes a lot of time for large projects.

You always say to check the script before you run it, but how do you that? I'm still kind of a newb.
Whenever I hear _any_ UA-cam say that the cynic in me thinks they are just saying that for CYA reasons, in case the script in their video is bad, they can say "I told you to check it before running, I didn't say it was safe to run!"
Truth is you need to know how to program scripts to be able to check them for safety, it's not a thing a newbie can do on their own. You need to be a programmer/scripter.
@@CosmicCleric I suspected that because Chris is usually a little more informative about how to do things like that. I guess other than checking it in a VM you are always running a script at your own risk.
@@rastamouse7861 Actually wasn't pointing to Chris directly, but I haven't seen _any_ UA-cam videos that run a script in them where the content creator doesn't says something along the lines of check the script yourself before running, a general CYA thing.
@@CosmicCleric No, neither was I. I was just using that as an example of what I typically see. I guess it is CYA but normally Chris would mention that he put a tutorial down in his discription or something about a cool app that will check scripts for us newbs. But I am really just trying to learn more about scripts ultimately.
@@rastamouse7861 He didn't do that in this video though, but I get your point.
Edit: To be fair he did run the script on camera, so he basically became the guinea pig for us viewers.
I've heard of people using a good Android device with wine to play computer games on there phone is this even possible

Yes.
I love linux but 90% of my library doesn’t work yet which sucks cause I hate windows
I am a Computer Information Systems major at my college, my professor has said before that in between the time it took her to walk from upstairs to down the thing that she was looking at had changed and she had to relearn what was going on with it.

I keep Linux on a dedicated SSD but still find myself creeping back to Windoze 10. I'm well versed in Linux, but still not really feeling it unless I'm programming, other than that, meh.
Yeah, that's the thing.
If your dual booting you will never really get into the "other" system.
When I started with Linux I found myself constantly booting into Windows.
But my goal was to learn Linux, because I was tired of all the lockdown in Windows.
And after about a month I really enjoyed using Linux.
Now when I'm sometimes forced to do something in Windows ( at work ), I don't see why I had such a hard time switching over.
@@Zandman26 You are absolutely right! The lockdown is what's killing me on Windows. I can't seem to make up my mind what distro to actually stick with. I feel like I've tried almost every Linux distro there is, however, Mint and Ubuntu are the two I use the most. I know......Ubuntu........lol. I'll admit it, I boot into Linux mostly for Citra since OpenGL drivers for AMD work better on the platform. I have got to have me some Zelda: A Link Between Worlds after a long 12 hour shift. ;) ;)
Have you used Minecraft on WINE on Linux Mint
Java Minecraft should work and bedrock there's a custom launcher for it.

Thank God for Wine, I can use Musicbee rn, the only good music player alongside foobar2000
JRiver is proprietary, but it does work on Linux just fine and is arguably better than both foobar2000 and MPC. Technically it is superior, but I never got used to the UI.
There are native Linux builds, no WINE required.
@@praetorxyn I like the UI, it's intuitive and appealing, i never liked the list layout that all the linux mp have
@@OsmarMty I just got used to a custom skinned foobar2000 and MPC for video. I bought JRiver but have hardly used it as I mostly stream video these days and mostly listen to music on my phone.
Woyuld you like some cheese with that?
Wine is NOT Emulator :)
Second!
you talk to much how to run steam
linux sucks for gaming.
Toooo much BS to play games. If you're forced to use Linux only, then I guess you have no choice but to jump through all these hoops.
